Great track. Junior Campbell's "Hellelujah Freedom" and this track where both big sounds in your normal soul type clubs back in the early 70s. P.S. The female backing singer on "H. F." was Doris Troy. P.P.S. I didn't know untill now he was in Maralade. Edited July 27, 2012 by davetay Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Davenpete Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 (edited) Well he is isn't he? Probably missing the boat here, but apparently Sky Saxon (nutty lead singer of the Seeds - Pushin Too Hard etc) toured the Southern States doing the white RnB thing calling himself 'Little Richie' in the mid 60s (according to the California Dreaming book - which I sadly got knicked/willfully unreturned) - no definitive link of course. Dusty Springfield - Live It Up - now THERE'S a great underplayed white track! From what I remember of seeing pictures of them the Velours were hispanic rather than white - didn't they tour Britain as the Fantastics? Doesn't get any better than Stronger Than Me - always had a major soft spot for Evie Sands too. Dx PS Bricks Broken Bottle and Sticks - total load of crap - there were SIX white demos at £1.50 each in a record shop round the corner from Sid Scarborough's in in Hull in the mid 80s (I guess about 85 - I left Hull Art College in 86) - anyway we all knew they were there and thought it SUCH garbage that they couldn't sell any of them - however wish I knew then what I know now about records coz the numerous second hand record shops in Hull (about 10) were stuffed with some great US 70s soul - plus of course Paul Madden in the covered market still had a lot of his really good stuff.
